I Have the Right to Change My Mind!

So we do it all the time. Right? Change our mind.

 An opportunity happened at The Brass Armadillo, a wide open space upstairs, very visable from downstairs and less than half the rent of the showroom. And I jumped on it! There will be a two week transition period where Simply Vintage will have no presence at the Brass, but I feel like I am reinventing myself and my business. I'm excited to recreate the "store" and mix it even more with my Etsy shop. What I am really looking forward to is picking again!

So when all is said and done, the new opening should be March 9th! Of course, the Etsy store is open 24/7 and I will be adding more store clothing to it over the next month! Stick with me, I promise to bring you the goods!

XOXO

This post was suppose to be about Auntie Elsie's Suit, well that has been postponed in light of the fact that I gave notice at the Brass Armadillo with regards to my showroom. I have gone back and forth trying to decide if I stay in a smaller location there or make the leap into totally an online business on Etsy. It is not an easy decision. I have created an in home space to house Simply Vintage. Of course, I need more space, but it is workable. I haven't "picked" for months trying to streamline my inventory to make this transition. I'm trying to rid anything deemed made in the 80's through 90's. All shoes and boots are currently 20% off. My focus is that I purge "classic" and completely stick with truly "vintage". I hope you stick with me during my crisis, transition and hair-pulling experience. And I will get back to Auntie Elsie's Suit when the waters have calmed or my anti-anxiety meds kick in! XOXO Lisa
